Jeff, how much does independent right arm adduction between p4 to p5.5 help to minimize an OTT swing path? Is it possible for independent right arm adduction to offset a too horizontal shoulder turn, and correct a pulled OTT shot into a straight shot?

Is it possible for independent right arm adduction to offset a too horizontal shoulder turn, and correct a pulled OTT shot into a straight shot? UG I don't think that an active right arm adduction maneuver can overcome an OTT move where the right shoulder moves outwards too much between P4 => P5, and I don't think that it can convert an out-to-in clubhead path (due to an OTT move) to an in-to-square-to-in clubhead path needed for a straight shot. Jeff.

I agree it would not resolve it completely, but it is probably better than no RAA. With no RAA, the hand arc path would strictly follow the shoulder’s OTT path, which would be the worst case scenario. If the RAA was independent, fast, and downward, it would certainly remove some of the OTT issue, wouldn’t it?
Similarly, wouldn’t using a punch elbow make the OTT path worse than using a pitch elbow?
In terms of explaining the OTT variance, the shoulder’s path probably explains the most, however, the speed and quality of RAA would likely explain some of the variance.

UG A RAA maneuver will partially work in preventing a gross OTT swing action if it happens well before the upper torso rotates, but then it has the distinct disadvantage that it will likely encourage an arm-induced release of PA#4 rather than a pivot-induced release of PA#4.
